ABSTRACTAn Interim Program offers high school students the
opportunity to expand their outlook on education, school function,and community resources through a two-week series of courses betweensemesters. The courses are grouped under two headings: Interim CourseOfferings (Academic and Avocational) and Career Research LaboratoryProgram. The mini-courses vary in length from 45 minutes to threehours, each student taking a minimum of 4 1/2 hours per day. Coursesare - taught by teachers, students, administrators, and communitypeople. Remedial courses are also offered. The Career ResearchLaboratory Program is open to seniors who spend the twoo weeksWorking, on a oue-to-one basis, with a member of an occupation pftheir choice. Each student is observed once a week by a staff member;.iarticipants complete a diary-type report at the end of the(41xperience. The program development process involved teachers,students, and parents. Informal and formal evaluations indicate asecure future for the program. Two appendices explain the interimpre-registration procedures, course offerings, and registrationforms. (Relevant ERIC documents and other information pertinent tothe program conclude the profile.)

Brandywine nigh School, in Wilmington, Delaware, is providinoeducational experiences for students outside the confines or curricu-lum coarse guides. Moir Interim Program offers students the oppor-tunity to expa-nd their outlook on education. school function, andcommunity resources by of A two-W00): series of courses betweensemesters. Those coursc3 are designed to prOVigh, students With achoice of novo! experiences unavailable during the nemdl school cal-endar. Thu courses are grouped under two euin headings: InterimCourse Offerings and tire Interim Career Researeh laboratory roqram.
INTERIM COURSE OFFERINGSTwo-week mini-courses are designed to ahem' students and
teachers to explore in depth a particular field of interest. Coursesvary in length from 45 minutes to three hours; each student. must take
minimum of 4', hours per day. Last year, 127 courses rouging fromCivil War Military History to Bicycle Repair were offered to students
Well an teachers. The mini-cottrss are %trouped under Academic andAvocational categories. Beery student is required to dtoose at leastone course tram the Academic listing and can then fill the remainderof his 4'Y hour daily schedule with any number of other offerings.
Courses are taught by teachers. students, administrators, andcommunity people. Each teacher determines the length of the sessions.the optimum number of participants, and the course content. Meetingsare not confined to normal school hours and conventional classrooms.Some sample course descriptions from Interim indicate the diversityof courses offered. (A represents Academic; B represent" Avocational)
A401 A Military History of the Civil War--Mr. Von Stetten. principal
The Philosophy of Drug Abuse - -Dr. W. 1. VondervortSpecial. seminar. taught by one of Delaware's foremost authori-ties in the field of drug abuse. Three important books will bediscussed: The Oreening of Amorica, Pnture Shock, and ThePleasure Seekers. Program will focus on thinking and psychologybehind the abuse of both illicit and prescription drugs by bothadults and adolescents.
B934 Taxidermy--Ross Harris, Class of 1972Basic bird mounting--learn the principles and practices. (Rosswas a participant in the Career Lab program during Interim I;his experience was in the field of taxidermy).
B310 Interim Newspaper - -Hr. McCloskey
For those interested in Journalism, an opportunity to publish anewspaper focusing on the various interim course activities;layout, design, and good reporting and writing techniques willbe stressed.
A number of significant remedial courses are also offered tostudents during Interim. They may be selected in addition to or as a
continued
part of the 0 hour minimum. Although students are not assigned toremedial work, the small class sizes in these areas allow studentsand teachers the special benefit of working on almost a one-to-onebasis.
Courses which require special materials and equipment or aspecial meeting place require a fee for participants. Skiing carriesa fee ranging from $25.00 to $35.00 to cover the use of facilities andtransportation for the two-week period. Some courses which, require
special equipment and materials--like plibtography and cooking--carrymuch smaller fees. If students want to take a course but can't affordit, the School is usually able to waive the fee.
Although students are required to participate in Interim, thevery nature of the courses make them very popular with the student body.The sight of a "stodgy old math teacher" roiling up her sleeves andimmersing her arms in dough during a course in French cooking can,greatly enhance the relationship of that teacher with her students.
INTERIM CAREER RESEARCH LABORATORY PROGRAMSeniors at Brandywine are given the option during interim of
participating in the Career Research Laboratory Program. Studentschoosing this option spend the.two weeks working, on a one-to-onebasis, with a member of an occupation of their choice.
The purpose of the Career Research Lab is to provide studentsthe opportunity to:
a) Explore--through first hand observation, experience, andrelated readings--a career area in which they are con-sidering investing their adult lives.
b) Study and be exposed to as many facets as possible of thesocio-economic life of the community and of the industry orfacility which the student studies.
c) Begin to develop leadership qualities and habits ofresponsibility, analysis, and planning.
In order to provide the Lab student with a full and realisticview of the chosen occupation, his hours and activities coincide withthose of his sponsor. A lawyer chooses a variety of related readingmaterials so that his intern will be more familiar with the cases inwhich he is involved. A physician phones his intern at 2:00 a.m. sothat they can work together on an emergency case. Opportunities areprovided for interns to observe other members of the field at work orin meetings. At the end of the two-week Lab, each participant hasbeen exposed to a wide range of experiences which be would encounteras a member of his selected career.
Participants in the Career Lab Program do not receive any pay.The value to the student is the opportunity to observe and participatein the career of his or her choice. Also, the school does not want todiscourage potential sponsors Ly requesting payment for the students.Lunches, parking, and transportation costs are paid by the student.
Student supervision during the Lab program is of primary con-.
cern to the faculty at Brandywine. Each student is observed oncea week, on the job, by a Brandywine staff member. Career Lab parti-cipants are required to complete a diary-type report at the end ofthe first and second weeks of the experience.
John Curran, Career Coordinator, and his staff work extremelyLong hours in trying to gather the range of sponsors necessary tomaintain the current success which the Lab program enjoys. in somecases the range of careers open to student involvement extends beyondthe resources of the Wilmington community. While the majority of the150 participating students are involved in such occupations us taxi-dermy, medicine, teaching, real estate, electronics, and communica-tions, several students have opted for fields not available withinthe community. Last year, arrangements were made for two girls tospend their two weeks in Vermont learning about motel management.Another girl participated in the program as a ballet dancer with aNew York City troupe. When students choose an employer away fromhome, they are responsible for providing their own transportationand for planning room and board. At the same time, the school worksvery closely with parents, meeting with them individually to helporganize the experience. A constant line of communication involvingschool, parent, and sponsor is maintained with each student throughoutthe duration of the career lab. Curran feels it does not matterwhether the students emerge from their career experience with a lessenthusiastic feeling toward that career; the important factor is thateach student becomes aware ofthe positive and negative attractionsof a career he or she observes.

tudents to construct their own schedules
tween semesters.
With the thrust of final examinations and end-of-
term papers, it seemed to him that high school students were, in
many ways, under the same pressures faced by college people.
How-
ever, the idea of taking time away from precious classroom instruction
and the regulations of the state education department seemed to negate
the possibility of special programs for two weeks between semesters.
In 1970, Von Stetten visited the Kincaid School., a private
secondary school of 1,000 students located in Houston, Texas.
There
he observed students taking part in a series of two-week mini-courses
which served to divide the school year.
Von Stetten returned to
Wilmington resolved more than ever to explore the feasibility of an
interim program for Brandywine.
After getting "the green light" from
the District Superintendent sad the Director of Secondary Education,
he went next to his faculty.
By meeting several times with each of
the ten departments, Von Stetten was able to answer teacher questions
concerning such items as grades, cost, and planning time.
he also
managed to transfer his enthusiasm for the program into the minds of
many faculty members who became intrigued with this "bold venture."
The organizational process took nearly fire months to complete.
With the majority of staff members solidly in support of the
endeavor, Von Stetten approached the Delaware Departmedt of Public
Instruction.
After several lengthy meetings, they gave permission for
Brandywine to deviate from the traditional number
hours for class-
room instruction in each discipline in order to implement the interim
Program.A planning committee composed of 18 members representing
Brandywine students, teachers, counselors, and administrators was
organized.
Parents were also involved in this process, being kept
informed of all activity through the Parents Advisory Committee at
the school.
A series of student surveys was conducted by the committee,
aimed at. finding out the kinds of experiences desired by the students
if they were given the opportunity to choose their own courses and
their own teachers.
Survey results showed that students were inter-
ested in hundreds of courses ranging from glass blowing to inter-
national cooking.
A composite of these desires was circulated among
the faculty, who were asked to determine the courses they were able
and willing to teach.
The search for teachers for the various courses
was also conducted within the community.
A number of courses had to
be dropped because no instructor could be found.
After nearly 13 months of intensive planning, registration for
the first Interim was held in the school gymnasium en-January 13, 1972.
During this campus-style registration, the Planning Committee--indeed
the entire faculty--was busily involved in answering student questions
and in guiding the entire registration procedure.
DOES INTERIM SERVE A USEFUL FUNCTION?
"The Interim, for me and everyone I've spoken to, has been a
super worthwhile experience.
My only regret is the fact that I'm only
a ?unior and won't be able to take a different group of subjects next
year since I want to participate in the Career Laboratory."
Brandywine personnel point to student
comments such as this
as one indication of success.
Among the goals of the program are
the enrichment of the educational experiences offered to students at
the school and the encouragement of students at Brandywine in seeing
their school as a positive institution for exploration and learning.
The achievement of these goals is evident in many other ways also.
In addition to the general receptivity by students, faculty, and
community, the program has made a marked impression on individual
participants.
Ross Harris, a former Brandywine student who took part
in last year's Career Lab Piogram, has postponed his college career.
As a result of his experience, he is currently working as a full-time
apprentice for the local taxidermist.
In addition, he is imparting
his skill to fellow students by teaching an Interim course offering.
Students participating in the first Interim Career Lab were
required to submit a daily log of their activities to their faculty
advisors.
These diaries indicated a wide range of activities and
exposures within each career experience.
There were very few cases of
students relegated to mantel paper work or other unenlightening chores.
Following are some samples taken from student diaries.
"After being on the job for
aweek it was time for the
sponsors
to time us on how many bricks and how many
blocks we could lay.
It was the sponsor's job to check
on the improvement.
I am sure Paul and I will soon be
able to break some records in laying bricks."
"I learned so many things during the Interim experience
I had with the Data Information Center for Education;
also, I found out some of the day-to-day problems in the
continued
opera tion or a coropeter center. Another thing I /earnedwas the di fervnco between production and development --WOW What a di r ft:renCe. P0, Inc' l am cony I need the ntor -m Was a Vcry worthtyhllc ox pc r i ono: "

ti rMEMORANDUM
(7. TO: Student BodyFROM: Interim Planning CommitteeDATE: December 14, 1972
ODD SUBJECT:
w'MERIN FRE-iiEGISTRATION
The following pages contain course descriptions and other valuable informationon the more than 125 courses to be offered during the forthcoming Interim Program. Stu-dents are asked to study this document carefully and to think seriously about course workthat they would like to become involved in. A form will be distributed in homeroom thisweek, on which the student body willbe asked to list first choices and alternates. Thefollowing items will serve as a guidaine.
All students should plan to be involved in a minimum of 42 hours of programming.This may be a choice of one three-hour course and one 90-minute offering, three 90-minuteprograms, or a combination of 45, 90, or 3-hour courses to total the required 4i hours.Because the final master schedule has not yet been built, it is not possible for us todetermine what conflicts may result from individual choices. We do know from experience,however, that a rather substantial number of such conflicts are possible. This being thecase, we are asking students to choose an alternate for each of the courses selected.Since students are asked to choose at least one offering from the A courses, at least onealternate must also be included from the A courses to total the 4i hours minimum. Ourpurpose in this pre-registration is to get a final check on those courses for which inter-est was marginal before and to determine the number of sections required for those programshaving large student interest. While this pre-registration is not necessarily binding,we would ask that students give serious thought to the kinds of things which interestthem for the Interim.
Final registration will be held later this month and will be handled in acollege style, where students will report to a central registration center to pick uproster cards for the courses of their choice. Since there will be limited enrollment forsome courses, smile of these programs will "fill" and will be closed early in the regis-tration day. Seniors will register first, followed by juniors, then sophomores, butregistration will generally be en a first-come, first-served basis.
A number of significant remedial courses are being offered to students and maybe elected either in addition to or as a part of the 41-hour minimum. This is a mostvaluable opportunity for students at any grade level who are having academic difficulty
:-) to "catch up" on regular class work. While students will NOT be assigned to remedialwork, it should be mentioned that small class sizes in these areas in particular willenable students and teachers to work on almost a one-to-one basis. Remedial classes willbe offered for a 45-minute period and should be an asset to students as they look forwardto the second semester. Take advantage of these programs.
Any senior interested in the Career Research Laboratory phase of the Interim isreminded that he should not register for regular course work but should fill out the CareerResearch Laboratory forms and turn them in to Mr. Curran.
Finally, there will undoubtedly be some courses scheduled for the evening hours.Tentative plans are for these programs to be scheduled during the period 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.;however, there will probably not be bus transport&tion provided for this time. Thosestudents who sign up for courses scheduled for the evening will, of course, be excusedeither during,the morning or afternoon sessions when they are unscheduled. There will bean opportunity to indicate a preference for night work; no student will be so assignedwithout his. approval..
Memo Re: Interim Pre-Registration (cont.) Page 2
There will be two significant changes from last year in the course descriptionbooklet in addition to the some 35 new course changes. You will notice that there arecourses listed in the B section which are labeled G. Because there was a great deal ofovercrowding in these recreational programs held in the gym areas, and because it is ourintent to open the gym for unstructured recreation during at least one period during theday, it is necessary for us to limit the number of such courses any student may elect.In order, then, for as many students as possible to become involved, no student mayselect more than 90 minutes' worth of G courses.
Iftle the course description booklet does not describe the programs inContinuing Math (i.e., Algebra-Trig and Calculus), students who are involved in thosecourses during the regular term should so indicate on the preliminary registration form.

MEMORANDUMa-. TO: Student Body
FROM Interim Planning Committee
DATE: October 29, 1971
coQ SUBJECT: .
LLI
INTERIM PRE-REGISTRATION
The following pages contain course descriptions and other valuable informationon the 139 courses to be offered during the forthcoming Interim Program. Students areasked to study this document carefully and to think seriously about course work that theywould like to become involved in. A form will, be distributed in homeroom on Monday onwhich the student body will be asked to list first choices and alternates. The followingitems will serve as a guideline.
All students should plan to be involved in a minimum of 1.0-g hours of programming.This may be a choice of one three-hour course and one 90-minute offering, three ninety-minute programs, or a combination of 45, 90, or 3-hour courses to total the required1 hours. Because the final master schedule has not yet been built, it is not possiblefor us to determine what conflicts may result from individual choices. We do know fromexperience, however, that a rather substantial number of such conflicts are possible.This being the case, we are asking students to choose an alternate for each of the coursesselected. Since students are asked to choose at least one offering from the A courses,at least one alternate must also be included from the ' courses to total the 1 hourminimum. Our purpose in this pre-registration is to get a final check on those coursesfor which interest was marginal before and to determine the number of sections requiredfor those programs having large student interest. While this pre-registration is notnecessarily binding, we would ask that students give serious thought to the kinds ofthings which interest them for the Interim.
Final registration will be held in December and will be handled in a collegestyle where students will report to a central registration center to pick up roster cardsfor the courses of their choice. Since there will be limited enrollment for some courses,some of these programs will "fill" and will be closed early in the registration day.Seniors will register first, followed by juniors, then sophomores, but registration willgenerally be on a first-come, first-served basis.
A number of significant remedial courses are being offered to students and maybe elected either in addition to or as a part of the 41/4-hour minimum. This is a mostvaluable opportunity for students at any grade level who are having academic difficulty to"catch up" on regular class work. Uhile students will NOT be assigned to remedial work, itshould be mentioned that small class sizes in these areas in particular will enablestudents and teachers to work on almost a one-to-one basis. Remedial classes will beoffered for a 45-minute period and should be an asset to students as they look forward tothe second semester. Take advantage of these programs.
Any senior interested in the Career Research Laboratory phase of the Interim isreminded that he should not register for regular course work but should fill out theCareer Research Laboratory portion of the pre-registration form on Monday.
Finally, there will undoubtedly be some courses scheduled for the evening hours.--, Tentative plans are for these programs to be scheduled during the period 6:30 to 9:30 P.M.;
however, there will probably not be bus transportption provided for this time. Thosestudents who sign up for courses scheduled for the evening will, of course, be excusedeither during the morning or afternoon sessions when they are unscheduled. There will bean opportunity to indicate a preference for night work; no student will be so assignedwithout his approval.
